Well, just looking at it I would say your water is a bit too bright and makes the map kind of hard to look at. The text in the ocean is hard to read. You have spiffy looking decorations in the water that I would darken to make a little more pronounced. A few rivers might be in order too, if just to give the towns a visible source of water.
